Translator: 549690339

After Li Changying’s test ended, several rounds passed without anyone surpassing his score. He held the first place in the advanced group, while the first place in the intermediate War General’s group was held by Gongsun Yue from the Northwest Military Martial Arts. Sui Changlong held the first place in the primary group, and the Northwest Military Martial Arts’s rise to the top of all three leaderboards was a sight to behold.

It wasn’t until the 16th round that a celebrity-like figure appeared: Jiang Huai from Demon Capital.

As someone who had independently killed an A-level Mutated Beast, Jiang Huai was always considered the strongest War General. However, people now doubted whether he could surpass Li Changying’s performance.

In the first round, Jiang Huai’s speed was not slow, and he scored nine points for returning the little girl. In the second round, his attack speed was not as fast as Li Changying’s, scoring only 9-5 points. It was clear that Jiang Huai was the rational type, analyzing the terrain and the situation of both sides before launching his attack, making his actions slower.

In the third round against Yan Qiyue, Jiang Huai performed well and scored nine points, but he still didn’t surpass Li Changying.

In the fourth round, Jiang Huai demonstrated his powerful strength by killing an A-level Mutated Beast in a siege battle, earning nine points like Li Changying. It was nearly impossible to get full marks in this round.

In the fifth round, Jiang Huai scored eight points, which was considered a high score. However, his final total was 44-5 points, just half a point short of Li Changying, leaving him in second place.

Li Changying’s first place was still secure, and his dominance over the top War General boosted his reputation even further.

Subsequently, many outstanding talents emerged from various Base Cities, but no one could challenge the three champions’ first place.

Nineteen rounds passed, and only the last round remained. The Northwest Military Martial Arts still held the top three spots, leaving people speechless with their dazzling performance.

In Capital Base City, Su Mingyue took the stage. She was the last one in the final round.

“Mingyue, it’s up to you.”

“Mingyue, our Capital has been the first every year. This year, it’s up to you to beat those big-headed soldiers from the Northwest.”

Su Mingyue nodded slightly, dressed in snow-white clothes as beautiful as a celestial being, and slowly walked towards the tree.

Lin Zhen also approached the tree, as he was number 298, which was the last round.

When he left the Ice City team, everyone looked at him, including Lou Qingfeng, Lei Ming, Han Fengju, and Wu Ming. These people who had had disputes with Lin Zhen in the past now put their conflicts aside, hoping that Lin Zhen could achieve good results.

However, Sui Changlong scored 42 points and was still far ahead in the primary group. Could Lin Zhen surpass him?

The crowd gathered under the Star Fruit Tree, where Guo MO issued the command to start the race. Lin Zhen dashed out in a single step.

Although Lin Zhen was a third-level War General, his actual strength and speed greatly surpassed those of his peers. Even compared to a sixth-level War General, he did not fall short. As soon as he started, he immediately left the others behind by a significant distance.

“Look! That kid from Ice City is so fast!” someone exclaimed.

“Indeed, is he really in the primary group?”

The five-meter-wide path built on the bark of the Star Fruit Tree provided ample room for Lin Zhen to sprint, and within just five minutes, he reached the first platform.

A staff member handed him a helmet, which Lin Zhen put on and sat down, just as a fragrant breeze swept by. Lin Zhen noticed Su Mingyue appear beside him.

Su Mingyue saw Lin Zhen as well, and, in her surprise, she politely nodded before putting on her helmet.

Lin Zhen was also taken aback by the fact that Su Mingyue, a girl, could run so fast. Out of respect for her, he nodded in return and put on his helmet.

His vision went black, and after a moment of flickering lights, Lin Zhen found himself in a narrow alleyway, confused as to why he was there.

“Uncle! Could you help me, please?”

A crisp little girl’s voice rang out, and Lin Zhen turned to see a girl struggling to carry a heavy load on her back.

Seeing it was about to slip off, Lin Zhen quickly stepped forward and took the load from her. Looking inside the bag, he saw a large amount of money.

Lin Zhen frowned slightly: “Little girl, why are you carrying so much money?”

“It’s my father’s money; I need to take it back home. Can you help me get it there?”

Seeing the child’s sweat-streaked forehead, Lin Zhen’s heart softened. In his past life, he was a lonely man who had yearned for a family and a beautiful, lovely daughter. The little girl before him seemed to overlap with that image in his mind. Without hesitation, Lin Zhen gently scooped her up in his arms:

“Let’s go. I’ll take you home.”

When they reached the girl’s home, Lin Zhen carried her inside, and just as his vision blurred, he found that the staff had already removed his helmet.

“Lin Zhen, you passed the first round with a score of ten!”

Only then did Lin Zhen realize that he was still in the competition, and without thinking about anything else, he immediately began climbing to the second level.

He was unaware of the situation below, where the crowd was in an uproar.

Almost at the same time as Lin Zhen, Su Mingyue from Capital Base City also scored ten points.

To get a full score in this round, one must not only resist the temptation of money but also have a caring heart because the little girl is already very tired. Specifically, to get a full score, one must not only carry the backpack but also carry the girl along so as not to be slow.

Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue both managed to do this. After removing their helmets, Su Mingyue looked at Lin Zhen with a slight surprise and then turned away with a twist of her graceful body. Lin Zhen immediately headed to his own path.

“Good job, Idol!”

“Su Mingyue is awesome!”

“Wow! Two full scores! This is the first time I’ve seen full scores for the first round, and two at the same time, it’s beyond amazing!”

“It’s not surprising that Su Mingyue got a full score, but who’s that guy from

Ice City? How is his speed so fast? It’s comparable to the advanced group.”

“Yeah, I’ve never heard of him before.”

Lin Zhen was completely unaware of the situation below and continued to sprint towards the second floor. When he reached the platform, he unexpectedly encountered Su Mingyue again.

This time, neither of them spoke. Lin Zhen saw Su Mingyue’s beautiful lips pursed slightly, apparently upset that a junior War General could keep up with her and feeling a sense of competition.

In the second round, although Russians were oppressing a Hua Xia girl, in Lin Zhen’s test, the strongest opponent was an Advanced War General at the peak because Lin Zhen was just a junior War General and would not directly face War God Level strong ones.

Seeing Lin Zhen, the Russian man revealed a sinister smile, “Hey, Hua Xia’s yellow-skinned pig, get the hell away from me, or else 1…”.

“Swoosh!”

Five cold lights tore through the space, aiming straight for the throats of the five Russian Martial Artists!

Lin Zhen made his move, taking action immediately. If it were his past life, Lin Zhen might have hesitated or retreated, but after being reborn, his heart had become fearless. He didn’t hesitate to act in the face of such a situation, launching five flying knives simultaneously!

The scene vanished, and Lin Zhen regained his senses, realizing he was still in the competition.

At the same time, Su Mingyue also removed her helmet. “Su Mingyue passed the round, score: 10 points!”

“Lin Zhen passed the round, score: 10 points!”

It was understandable that Su Mingyue got a full score because she was a girl herself and would naturally empathize with the abused girl. In the past, when other girls faced this test, they almost always started acting and got a full score immediately, so this was within people’s expectations. However, Lin Zhen’s full score once again left people in shock.

“This kid has some guts.”

“He’s not afraid to attack immediately, which shows his confidence in his own strength.”

“Looking at his attack style, he’s a Spiritual Mind Master, right? What’s his name?”

“Didn’t you see the screen? His name is Lin Zhen.”

With two consecutive full scores, Lin Zhen finally made a name for himself among all Martial Artists and made people remember this Junior War General from Ice City.

Over at the instructors’ side, Guan Shanyue said to Shi Sheng from Northwest, “Instructor Shi, things don’t seem to be looking good. Your first three students might not be able to keep their positions.”

Shi Sheng wasn’t too alarmed, “It’s too early to say now, isn’t it? The first and second rounds don’t test their true power. If their strength is not good enough, they will be eliminated in the third and fourth rounds. That’s the real test.”

“Then let’s wait and see. I believe Lin Zhen will definitely take first place,” Guan Shanyue said, unwilling to admit defeat even though he didn’t know Lin Zhen’s actual strength.

Lin Zhen continued racing forward and finally arrived at the third round, unexpectedly running into Su Mingyue again.

Originally, Lin Zhen never expected Su Mingyue to talk to him, but at this moment, she actually spoke to him.

She had beautiful peach-blossom eyes. Although her face was delicate, she never looked scary when angry, because of these eyes. Now, her eyes contained anger but still appeared watery, as she said to Lin Zhen, “This round, let’s see who does better.”

Her voice was cold, but it couldn’t conceal the girl’s sweetness, leaving Lin Zhen momentarily stunned.

Without waiting for a response, Su Mingyue put on her helmet again.

“Phew! I’m about to face Yan Qiyue. I’ve been looking forward to this moment. Yan Qiyue, you must have lived for hundreds of years now, right? Are you watching this test in person?”

Lin Zhen also put on his helmet and entered the illusion realm.

Upon entering the realm, he immediately forgot about reality, as did Lin Zhen. He saw Yan Qiyue, sitting on a Water Dragon by the lake and smoking.

“Who are you? Why are you spying on me, Yan Qiyue, slaying the dragon?” Yan Qiyue stood up.

Lin Zhen looked at Yan Qiyue, his eyes lighting up, “You are Yan Qiyue? How come you’re so young?”

Are you trying to steal my techniques? Kneel down and talk!”

As he said this, a dark golden light flowed around Yan Qiyue, and a substantial spiritual pressure enveloped the area like a storm!
